Complete story — includes the ending

An old friend of August Corbin's, Atticus Nevins, returns to Sleepy Hollow and reaches out to Abbie with claims he's being tracked by a demon from his past. After being imprisoned, he explains that he and Corbin served in the army during the First Gulf War, during which their squad came across a ghoul guarding a cave full of gold. Corbin's notes reveal that the ghoul was summoned for the sole purpose of punishing grave robbers, and that it can be controlled with a golden scarab. Nevins reveals that he has the scarab in his possession, and then orders the ghoul to kill Ichabod and Abbie so that he can steal the notes. Abbie destroys the scarab, causing the ghoul to vanish. Abbie meets with her father at a café, worried about the onset of her mother's insanity. Later, she opens her diary, which is filled with a mysterious symbol she encountered during her time in Pandora's dimension; she pledges allegiance to the symbol, saying, "You saved me. I'm yours."
